This document specifies a method of testing uniaxially deformed specimens under strain control at constant amplitude, uniform temperature and fixed strain ratios including at Re = −1 for the determination of material fatigue properties. It can also be used as a guide for testing under other R-ratios, as well as elevated temperatures where creep deformation effects may be active.

This document describes a method for the ultrasonic testing of uncoated flat steel product for internal discontinuities. This document is applicable to flat product in nominal thickness range of 5 mm to 200 mm of non-alloyed or alloyed steel, excluding austenitic or austenoferritic steels. However, this document can be applied to the latter types of steels provided that the difference between the amplitude of the noise signal and that of the echo detection threshold is sufficient for the limit fixed. This document also defines five quality classes for the flat product body (classes S0, S1, SA, S2 and S3) and five classes (E0, E1, E2, E3, E4) for the edges (see Clause 13). Other methods of testing (e.g. by phased-array) or other test equipment may be used at the manufacturer's discretion provided that they give identical results to those obtained under the conditions of this document. In the event of a dispute, only the method defined in this document shall prevail. Testing of flat product of thickness less than 5 mm or higher than 200 mm may be the subject of special agreements between the parties concerned. The inspection is normally carried out in the place of production or on the premises of the supplier. If specified on the order, the inspection takes place in the presence of the purchaser or his representative1. A list of equivalent terms in several European languages is given in Annex A.

This document describes the criteria and the procedure for analysing aluminium and aluminium alloys with spark optical emission spectrometry (S-OES). This document specifies the following: — sample preparation; — operational guidelines for an optical emission spectrometer (including maintenance); — traceability of the analytical results to the International System of units: mass (kg); — assessing the uncertainty associated with each analytical result. This document refers to simultaneous spark emission spectrometers for the analysis of solid samples. This document applies to the determination of silicon, iron, copper, manganese, magnesium, chromium, nickel, zinc, titanium, boron, gallium, vanadium, beryllium, bismuth, calcium, cadmium, cobalt, lithium, sodium, phosphorus, lead, antimony, tin, strontium and zirconium in aluminium and aluminium alloys. This document is applicable to the determination of elements other than those listed above with the following conditions: a) suitable reference materials are available; and b) the instrument is suitably calibrated and equipped. The test result obtained from a spark optical emission spectrometer generally concerns an amount of less than one milligram per spark spot. The result can be used to refer to the laboratory test sample, to the aluminium or aluminium alloy melt or to the cast product.
